Chelsea has opted against signing Jadon Sancho permanently, triggering a £5 million penalty to Manchester United after failing to meet their transfer obligation. The winger, who spent last season on loan at Stamford Bridge, was initially set to join Chelsea for £25 million, but personal terms could not be agreed upon.
Sancho will now return to Old Trafford, where his future remains uncertain. Manchester United is expected to entertain offers from clubs across Europe and the Premier League, with several teams reportedly interested in securing his services.
Chelsea’s decision comes as they focus on alternative transfer targets, including Borussia Dortmund’s Jamie Gittens, whose potential arrival could reshape their attacking options. Meanwhile, Arsenal and other Premier League rivals are monitoring Sancho’s situation, considering a move for the England international.
With the summer transfer window heating up, Sancho’s next destination remains a key talking point, as clubs weigh their options ahead of the new season.
